RULING SYSTEM
Clues
"really?"
Song Qie was greatly shocked when he heard Yan Liyan knowing the clues regarding the disappearance of the inhabitants of the outskirts of the protective aray region.
"That's true.
Actually I saw the city leader soldiers entering the region, It makes me very surprised because if I think about it again then..
"That's impossible, you'd better get rid of your suspicions on the city leader immediately or you'll know for yourself the consequences. After all the city leader would not be able to do such a thing." before Yan Liyan's words were finished, Song Qie without a second thought just denied it because he knew what Yan Liyan would say next.
"And just so you know, if the city leader is a good, fair, and wise leader. He gave low taxes to the people, gave shelter to those who could not afford it and many more good things the city leaders had done. Plus his ancestor was the one who saved humanity from extinction by making this protective aray, so there's no way he's doing that."
Song Qie explained the kindness of the city leader to Yan Liyan to convince her that the city leader would not steal the inhabitants of the protective aray suburb.
"He's very righteous and just so you know, if only someone else or one of the soldiers heard what you said earlier. You could have been sentenced to death for spreading untrue rumors about the city leader, so don't talk recklessly or your life would be a bet!" Song Lao warned Yan Liyan against speaking carelessly.
'Hmm. This is difficult, but it would feel strange if they immediately believed. I also did not expect that the leader of this city had such an outsider.'
"Maybe what you explained earlier is true, but can you explain why there are city-leaders who go outside the protective aray area at night?"
"Eh, that....
"They wouldn't probably just want a leisurely stroll in such a shanty place would they? then suddenly the next day all the people in that place disappeared.
It can't be a coincidence, can it?
I know that you know very well the good side of town leaders, but things don't always look the same as you think."
Yan Liyan said that with a slight glance towards Song Qie.
Yan Liyan smiled faintly when she saw song Qie's hand tremble.
"Did you know anything about what happened to their disappearance, Song Lao?"
"N-no! I don't know anything." Song Lao spoke in a stammering manner as well as the look of his eyes downing with worry as if describing his current mood that was feeling terrified.
"You better tell me what you're hiding!"
"Actually what you've done to him. Why would he feel such fear?!" full of anger Song Qie looked sharply at Yan Liyan. He thought Yan Liyan had done something to his fiancee so much that it frightened him like that.
Yan Liyan paid no heed to Song Qie's words and continued to take a hard look at Song Lao.
'Illusion technique, the second technique of soul honesty.'
After Yan Liyan used an illusion technique. Song Lao's gaze suddenly became empty. Right now Song Lao was like an undead.
"Say!"
"Even night I saw one of the warrior leaders of the kora carrying a group of people from the outskirts to the residence of the city leader. The reason I hid all of this from Qie'er was so that Qie'er would not get involved into a matter that would endanger his life and the entire Song family." Song Lao said still blankly.
After saying that Song Lao's consciousness instantly returned.
"That's truth. Do you believe my words now?
"No! Not all of this is a lie.. Tell me if this is all a lie!" Song Qie did not believe what he had just heard and asked Song Lao for an explanation to confirm the truth of what he had heard earlier.
Song Lao whose consciousness has returned. He became confused as well as surprised by what Song Qie asked, but when Song Lao saw the smile from Yan Liyan, he immediately understood what had just happened.
"That's all true! I saw it with my own eyes Qie'er."
"Ah, fine as if you have known the bad side of the city leader. It's up to you to do next, but if you want the patron's aray suburb to survive, then help me spread the bad rumors about the city's leader in order to reduce the public's trust in him.
There is still a chance to save them. Yeah, at least before the blue full moon."
Yan Liyan then explained the real situation including regarding the suburban residents who were locked up in the basement.
"So, like that yeah.. From the beginning you did want to use us to carry out your mission, didn't you?"
"I think the word use is not appropriate, because we have the same goal, right?"
"It's still not necessarily." Song Lao said coldly, as he did not want to harm his fiancee and family.
"As far as you are... All right, I'll go first. See you later." After saying that, Yan Liyan instantly disappeared.
".......... "
"Huh.. It turned out that dropping someone's position was not an easy thing huh." murmured slowly Yan Liyan while choosing vegetables and meat that were peddled by the sword on the side of the road.
"Uncle I want to buy the best quality meat and some vegetables."
since the day had already started Afternoon, Yan Lihan chose to go home, but before that he had to shop for dinner.
Jiu Wei was training Qiao Mi and Su Fengli, so Yan Liyan was very confident that Jiu Wei did not have time to shop.
As for Bing Hua, Yan Liyan forgot to give her the money, so she could not buy anything. He also did not want to trouble Bing Hua who had to cook a lot of food for them.at least by purchasing such cooking ingredients would be able to reduce the task burden of Bing Hua.
"Huh.. I want to finish this. I'm so tired of all this burden and I'd love to end it all, but there's always a hitch." Yan Liyan muttered towards her residence after buying the ingredients.
".............. "
Somewhere else...
In a very mega building where seen two statues stand gallantly in front of the building.
Seen a middle-aged lung man standing in front of hundreds of elite soldiers. The middle-aged man was the leader of the city.
"Is there only so many victims you can provide for me! It was still very lacking even very lacking! Before the blue full moon happens I want to find additional people as a sacrifice! Do whatever it takes to get the ritual victim!
Do you all understand?!"
"Yes.. Leader!" the soldiers replied resolutely to convince their leader.
"Good! tonight, all of you must have more victims, otherwise I have no choice but to sacrifice you." said the middle-aged lung man with his demonic smile threatening the soldiers in that place.
Then after saying that, the middle-aged lung man disappeared from the place leaving a terrifying aura for the soldiers.
"I had expected that all this would happen" said one of the soldiers with a long sigh.
"That aura just now felt really terrible and what is this? are we not meant to protect society? why did the leader send us to do that? ." muttered one of the new soldiers with a terrified expression.
"Since two years ago the behavior and nature of leaders are very different from what they used to be. I don't know what the cause is, just do the command if you still want to live." the senior soldier gave the new soldier a heart.
While on top of a large statue of a beautiful girl in a black robe, the girl was seen watching the incident that occurred in the courtyard of the city leader's residence.
"This is an interesting piece of information to convey to Liyan'gege."
